San Rafael gear store moves downtown

SAN RAFAEL, Calif. – While many stores compete for freeway frontage, Mojotown Motorcycle Gear has moved to a more pedestrian-friendly location.

The store was formerly in an industrial area off state highway 580, but has moved downtown.

“The last three years out on the freeway were great, but the location lacked foot traffic,” said owner Michael Aron. “It was a cool shop, but only die-hard riders really came in. We want to expand our customer base and found a great location in the heart of downtown San Rafael on 4th Street.” He’s also happy about ample parking at the store, so customers can avoid parking meters.
